A Story of Rats is a duo consisting of the Los Angeles/Seattle based artists Garek J Druss and Daniel Salo. This collaboration was formed to create environments and atmospheres that enable the listener to engage in a heightened experience that resembles an ecstatic awareness or transcendence. Using analog and digital synthesizers, drum programming, and vocals, Salo and Druss create an intricate shadow that often obscures itself between sound, installation, tangibility, and time. The composed soundscapes they create shifts the perception from the material to conjure a sonic understanding of the ethereal.
